Sequel to the Education of Uncle Paul and the bases for The Starlight Express play produced in 1915. Blackwood became "Uncle Paul" to children in his own family and those of his friends. He delighted in having the fun of the children without the responsibility. Blackwood was of the opinion that children like animals had not lost their instinctive closeness to nature or their innocence both of which became dulled with age. A Prisoner in Fairyland reflects this youthful closeness to the natural and supernatural world he old vicar spoke to him strangely. "We've not forgotten you as you've forgotten us" he said. "And the place though empty now for years has not forgotten you either I'll be bound." Rogers brushed it off. Just silliness -- that was all it was.

The Abbé de Saint-Non Jean-Claude Richard 1727-1791 was a French connoisseur artist and patron. Between 1781 and 1786 he published a massive five-volume masterwork titled Voyage pittoresque ou Description des royaumes de Naples et de Sicile. It was one of the most lavishly illustrated productions of the 18th century capturing the height of the "Grand Tour" fascination with classical antiquity and the romantic landscapes of Southern Italy. Saint-Non collaborated with top-tier artists of the era most notably Hubert Robert Jean-Honoré Fragonard and Claude-Louis Châtelet to sketch the ruins vistas and daily life of Campania which were then meticulously engraved by master French printmakers.

1950004468New Haven: Yale University Art Gallery 1950. The Société Anonyme was conceived by and created in 1920 by Katherine S. Dreier Marcel Duchamp and Man Ray all artists committed to "the new movement in art" Modern Art. They assembled a membership of about 170 like minded artists who then assembled a collection by purchase gift or donation of more than 1000 works. The "Museum of Modern Art" in the title is not the museum we know today as MoMA which was established about a decade later. Drier and Duchamp intended the Collection itself as a Museum of Modern Art which would circulate through exhibitions for the education of the public. The catalogue lists 84 such exhibitions; the Collection also loaned works. In 1941 the open Collection was given to Yale University in 1950 the Collection was closed to further acquisitions. The Catalogue was published upon that closing. It represents the full Collection which represents many artists who were or were to become stars and other artists who have found oblivion. The Collection and the Catalogue are rich documents of artistic activity in the first half of the 20th century. Each artist is listed with a full statement by another Societe artist-member and her/his works in the collection. Appendices list Lectures Publications Exhibitions. An Index lists each artist and the writer of the artist's statement. Clean throughout no marks tears or folds; tight binding. The wrappers are faded at the edges especially along the spine. .
